I am a very youthful and vibrant late-thirties, I dance in a rhythm tap company, teach dance, and work as an office manager for an events lighting company. Came to Nola to escape the cold and loving this city more than I imagined I could. I am always asking friends and family to come visit because I love to host people and show them this awesome city! I am passionate and compassionate, supportive with a kick-in-the-rear when you need it. :)

I rented out my place for just over a year on Airbnb and had wonderful experiences! I miss doing that. Many of the reviews you see are from when I rented out my Lower Garden District place, which I no longer have. Now I've moved in with my fiancee just outside New Orleans and will be using the site only as a guest. Such a wonderful way to go places, meet people, and help individuals out :)

Seeing the world is one of my great passions! I've traveled the world performing in Broadway musicals, I've seen a lot of the far East and enjoyed one particularly amazing trip to India, thanks to money I saved up from renting out my place on Airbnb! I've seen Mt. Everest, the Potala Palace and Jhokang Temple, the Great Wall of China (twice), the world's best zoo in Singapore, the rainforest in Malaysia, the Kremlin and St. Basil's Cathedral, had dinner with the U.S. Ambassador to China, and so many other awesome adventures. I love to share my experiences and hear about others' travels and passions.

Favorites: Green smoothies, Jacques Imo's (you MUST eat there while you're here!), reading a book by the ocean, the book Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts, the Oneness Blessing (I'm a blessing giver, it's awesome + I will bless you up while you're here if you're interested), travel, dogs, laughter, guacamole, The Ruby Slipper brunch.

Susan is a great host!
She gave me tips on what to do and where to go.
Susan lives in Garden District witch is a really nice part of New Orleans. I would love to live in this neighborhoods.
My total experience of New Orleans and Susan; WOW!!

Susan was a great host and it was fun hanging out with her at Jazzfest.... such a nice day. Also, when I had a family emergency that required me to leave early, she was empathetic and flexible with arrangement... I will definitely stay with Susan on my next trip to New Orleans!

Susan was a great host! She made arriving and checking out smooth and easy. It was a nice relaxing place to go back to after long days of being a tourist in New Orleans.... and didn't break the bank. Thanks Susan!

Susan is awesome! She hosted my three friends and I for a long weekend and we fell in love with her home, neighborhood, and friendly attitude. We arrived later than expected the first night, and though we had to wake her up, she still greeted us with a big smile and patience. Her place was spotless, and the bed was a dream. She was very easy to talk to, fun-loving, and helped guide us throughout the city. Definitely would stay again!!

Susan was a great host! The apartment was a great place to stay. It was clean and comfortable. Additionally, lots of places to eat within walking distance and Susan was great with directions on my first day to help navigate the city. There are bus lines close-by so that getting to/from the Convention Center and exploring other parts of the city was super easy!

A great stay at Susan's place in NOLA's Lower Garden District. I was in town for a conference at the Morial Convention Center, and it was very refreshing to return to this comfortable home after a day in the relatively charmless downtown.
I didn't actually get to know Susan, as she wasn't home during my stay - she rented her other bed to another conference attendee, which worked out great. I would have loved to live with a local New Orleans dweller and get tips about what to do and where to go!
Susan's apartment was comfortable and tasteful, and her mattress is super comfy. I should mention that the partment's decorations aren't quite as minimalistic and shiny as the pictures suggest, as Susan has decorated some more since then. Everything was clean and nice, though.
Susan was reachable by phone and very helpful. She even bought almond milk and a box of raisin bran (my favorite) for breakfast ahead of my stay.

Reviews From Hosts

Susan and Kat were just delightful to have around... very interesting and sophisticated... and attractive! Susan has a beautiful place in New Orleans I am hoping to visit very soon. More great friends added to my other Airbnb guests...

Susan is an awesome being! I only had a little while to host her; but during that short time she really made a good impression on me. I was invited to take part in an event she was attending here in Houston. She is a real sweetie; and I hope we will always be friends! Terrific house guest...she is invited back any time!

Susan has been my best friend and soul sister for the last eight years. We met while touring China together doing the Sound of Music and our relationship has been as quirky and adventurous as that beginning would suggest. We've lived in New York and New Orleans together - sometimes I've hosted her in my apartments and she's done the same for me. I can say that she is an equally gracious guest as she is a host. She's clean, friendly, respectful, and will go above and beyond for others (even more so when the favor is returned). She loves learning from those around her as well as sharing the knowledge that she possesses herself. As a former resident of the apartment currently for rent, I will confirm that it is safe, quiet, spacious, and filled with the beautiful energy of the woman who lives there. Any time spent with Suz in our beautiful city of New Orleans will be time fondly remembered, I'm sure.

Susan is a beautiful, caring and bright person. I have worked with her organizing several events and I can tell you she is responsible, organized and dependable. If Suz says she's going to do something you can count on it being done and being done well. Her place is in a great location. I would highly recommend staying with her if your looking for a fun, drama-free pad to see New Orleans from!

Suz is amazing and a wonderful host.
Her place is a fabulous place to stay no matter what you are looking to do: to relax, to heal, to have a blast...
She is a wonderfully strong, articulate woman who will lead the way for you and make sure you have an amazing and easy stay.
Yay Suz!

Susan is an absolutely remarkable woman with a heart that sparkles gold. I have known her for 20 years since college (yikes!) and she has helped me out in workshops with teaching and assisting. You would be hard pressed to find a woman with more integrity or sweetness. Whether renting to or from her, I would bet my life on it that any transaction would be a win/win all around.

Susan is wonderful person. Her positive energy is infectious. We were work mates a long time back and being around her was uplifting, fun and not to mention how much of a team player she is. She isn't a commodity but for the lack of better words I'll say that I'd recommend her in any capacity.. as a employer, employee, tenant, friend, you name it!

Susan is no longer in NYC with us, but her spirit remains.... She is a talented performer and adventurous traveler, eater and thinker. Having the opportunity to share in her space while visiting New Orleans will serve as time not only well spent, but also forever momentous. Her energy will excite yet comfort and her patience and tolerance of others will humble you. We are waiting for you here in NY Susan.......VISIT SOON! We are so proud of your new life in New Orleans and as much as we wish you were here, we delight in your courage to nurture your passions and follow your dreams!
